Yeah, all the major IC's are socketed. I'm sure I can remove the connectors with my Wagner hot air gun. But I would just keep everything in the board to keep it all together or incase someone would want it whole. If it wasn't worth saving I would just take it to recycle with my next load but it seems worth hanging on to.
Thanks,
Matt

If it's a CoCo 1, the chips are probably socketed.
